    Image of Product. Front orientation. Set Screws. Steel Cup-Tip Set Screws.
    Made of alloy steel, these screws are strong enough to hold components without wearing down. The tip has thin edges that dig into surfaces for a secure hold. They often lock gears, pulleys, and other transmission components onto shafts.
    Black-Oxide Alloy Steel—These screws have a dark matte finish that offers minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.

    Steel Flat-Tip Set Screws

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Set Screws. Steel Flat-Tip Set Screws.
    Spread out holding power and protect surfaces from damage. Unlike cup and cone tip screws, the flat tip on these distributes pressure evenly, reducing marring but not holding as tightly. They're a good choice for repositioning parts frequently on jigs, fixtures, and other applications where the tip presses against a flat surface. Made of alloy steel, these screws are strong enough to hold components without wearing down.
    Black-Oxide Alloy Steel—These screws have a dark matte finish that offers minimal corrosion resistance, so they're best for dry environments.
